Residents have been allowed to return home after a south east London high street was closed off amid concerns over a man seen brandishing a knife in a flat above shops.
The Metropolitan Police said on Monday evening there was no information available currently to suggest there is anyone else inside the property.
Lewisham High Street was closed for most of Monday afternoon, and armed police could be seen on standby near the scene.
A spokesman for the Met said: “Police were called to a disturbance on Lewisham High Street, at around 10.45am on Monday.
It comes after footage posted to social media showed a man leaning out of the window with what appeared to be a kitchen knife, as well as waving it around inside the flat.
